Hello Everyone,
This is a wrap-up, of the last three farm hunts with the final (wet) hunt ending today. The sites gave up relics, coins, some I don’t knows, iron and of course junk. I did not show much of the junk, but did show a lot of things that are not really keepers. Each of the fields seem to have a “personality” of their own. Some had lots of junk with few keepers, while others had scarce targets, but were good when found. One of the three had been recently been turned over, while the other still had a ground cover of cut hay. Obviously, digging in the turned dirt was my choice, but you cannot always get the best hunting conditions. I’m just thankful the farmers said yes to my digging request.
Funny, lately I have been finding a lot of monogram and ornate spoon handles in various farm locations...very cool. Lastly, the plow or my digger gave Miss Liberty (1894 O half) a shave.
Thanks for looking.
